March BDJ Box Review

It has been a month since I received my March BDJ Box. I've been using and incorporated them in my daily routine for the past month. Most of them I've learned to love while the others, not so much.

L'OREAL Fall Repair 
Anti-Hair Fall
Shampoo and Conditioner
I've used up almost half of the shampoo while the conditioner has run out. Both products have the same scent but different consistency. 

The shampoo helps clean the hair and its great for color treated hair. It lathers well and helps reduce hair fall. 

The conditioner is easily absorbed by the hair. As you comb through your hair, you'll notice less hair falling off. But, it's not as moisturizing.  

Both products are great for reducing hair fall but I'm not gaga over the scent. I'm looking for hair products that can help make my hair smelling good after taking a shower. With this one, it does not have this distinct smell you'll fall head over heels. The scent is ordinary, typical, boring. 

It's a very good hair-fall duo but my hair needs moisture too. I'll purchase a full bottle of the conditioner to help finish off my shampoo. But I'm not going to repurchase this again. 

L'OREAL Color Riche Le Nail Art
Unfortunately, I haven't tried this product yet. I was planning to use it this week but then, I had my nails done. Maybe next time then! :) I'll do a separate review on this. 

L'OREAL UV Perfect 
12H Long-lasting UV Protector
This has been part of my morning routine. I use this after I apply my moisturizer. Since I started using this, I have less sun spots. Yay! 

I love this product! It's very handy and light. Great for travelling! While I was at the beach, I've been reapplying this and no need to wear a BB cream over it. 

It has SPF 50 UVB UVA PA +++. It's a tinted UV Protector and a great make-up base! 

It comes in a beige color with a light scent. Perfect for my skin tone! It can be easily spread on the skin and has a dewy finish. 

This is a perfect UV protector and make-up base in one! Will repurchase! :) 

L'OREAL UV Perfect BB Max

It's a BB cream with SPF 50+/PA +++. It comes in a sample tube. Though it seems small, it has a lot of product inside. I apply this over my moisturizer and sunblock. I've been using this since March and I love it. :) 

The cream is in dark beige color with a mild scent. Apply 5 dots on the face and spread evenly. It has a dewy finish and does not give a grayish effect unlike most BB cream. 

It looks natural on the face and blends really well on my skin tone. I might repurchase this. :) 

L'OREAL Youth Code Pre-Essence

The direction says: Use twice per day on a perfectly cleansed skin before your usual skincare routine. 

It comes in a sample tube similar to the L'OREAL UV Perfect BB Max. This is the first thing I apply in the morning and at night. 

It's in a clear gel form with a funky smell. It smells like glue (I'm not sure!). But it smells similar to it. As you spread it evenly on the skin, it feels sticky. I'm not sure if it has an effect on my skin nor does it make me look younger. 

I won't repurchase because I don't see any results and I don't like the scent. :( 

L'OREAL Shine Caresse in Juliette

I did a review on this as part of my Products I Regret Buying. Go check out why.

March Favorites

One more day and March is officially over. It went by so quickly!! Here are the products I've been using and loving for the past month. :) 

MARCH FAVORITES!

FACE: 

L'OREAL UV PERFECT Long-lasting UV Protector 30 ml (Price: P545) 

This was included in my March BDJ Box! I didn't get it for P545 so I'm really really happy. :) 

This is a tinted sunblock! I like how it evens out my skin tone and it can be a good replacement for any of your tinted moisturizer, BB cream, or foundation! You can use it on its own or use it in combination with your other make-up products. 

It does not feel sticky on the face and it lasts for a long time (12 hours). No problem reapplying it within the day, for it is tinted. It blends really well with your other make-up products. :) 

This is perfect for summer most especially if you're planning to go to the beach! No need to bring with you tons of product because this can be your sunblock and makeup base in one. :) 

L'OREAL UV PERFECT BB Max Sample Size

The BB cream comes in a sample size tube. It's original size is 30 ml and sells for P595. :) 

I use this BB cream after applying moisturizer and sunblock. I squeeze a pea-size amount on my ring finger and put 5 small dots on my face (both cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin). It spreads easily on the face and it blends well on my skin tone. A small amount goes a long way. :) 

It feels light on the skin and does not feel sticky during the day. Most BB cream I've used have a grayish effect but this one doesn't. :) 

I love this BB cream! I might purchase the real thing! :) 

MAKE-UP: 

MAYBELLINE The Falsies Mascara Waterproof 
(Price: P429)

I love this mascara!! It does not clump and it gives this very nice falsies effect. Hence, the name. :) 

I use my eyelash curler (I need to practice using this properly. Hahahaha!) and apply 2-3 coats of mascara! And voila, great looking lashes!! 

It's easy to wash the mascara off. Just use your ordinary facial wash and no more. :) 

I like this better than the cat eyes. Will definitely buy this again and again. :) 

NYX XTREME LIP CREAM 
in Pinky Nude (Price: P280)

I love this color! It's perfect for this season! It gives your lips a pop of color. 

It can be applied easily on your lips and the color stays for a long time. 

This shade can work well with most lip gloss. :) 















BODY

LUSH Ocean Salt 250 g 
(Price: P995)

Sorry how messy it looks like. I've been using it really often this month! 

It comes in a black tub which you twist to open and close. It has sea salt which is quite good for exfoliation of the face and body. It smells like lime and quite citrus-y. :)

I tried using it as a body scrub and I really really like it! I apply it on clean, dry skin and scrub it gently (focusing on problem spots). When you wash it off, your skin feels so smooth and clean. 

When you use it on the face, you  have to be extra careful because the salt might go to your eyes and it's quite painful and it will sting. I'm telling you! If you have sensitive skin, this might cause a reaction. 

I love this scrub and will buy more in the future!! 

Bath & Body Works 
Juniper Breeze Body Cream 226 g (Price: ?)

After you exfoliate or shower, you need to moisturize!! 

This was given to me last Christmas. I just fell in love with this!! It smells really really good!

I like how the packaging looks like! It's cool in the eyes and I like its simplicity. 

The body cream comes in mint green color. It smells fruity and minty! The scent stays on your skin for hours! 

It doesn't feel sticky even on a humid weather! It gives a cool sensation after using it. 

Love love love this!! :)

Something to look forward to: Etude House Bubble Hair Coloring
